How does one love when authentic love has never been obtained?

How does one love carrying the burdens of betrayal & loss?
How does one love when others do not see their own faults?
How does one accept who they truly are when others reject one’s defects? 

How does one move forward in isolation?
How does one obtain strength when each hour is a battle?

When does the pain subside & freedom reign?
When does one begin to feel whole again?

When is the sentence up from past transgressions?
When does redemption on all levels truly happen?

Where is the constant joy that many speak of?

The Christian life is not for the weak…

Pruning & isolation always before elevation!
Strength, courage, joy, and endurance only come from the Lord!

The Christian life is not a sprint or a light jog...
It is a marathon.
One can only love through a broken lens until they have fully accepted Christ as their Lord; and let the true healing begin!

​]]>Thu, 07 Aug 2025 17:27:49 GMThttps://www.sqscommunity.com/obstacle_warriors_blog/dear-jesusDear Jesus, 
As I am sitting here writing to you, so many thoughts consume my mind.  
(but you know that) 
I have faith when it comes to who you are and what you are capable of, but I still struggle with how you see me! 
(Your Precious, Anointed, Beautiful, Strong Warrior) 
I still operate as though I were that broken girl who did not believe others loved or believed in her abilities. 
As a result, this “broken girl” always strives beyond her own ability when it comes to others. 
I “come off” more put together than I truly am at times; and I can admit that I am NOT a fan of this “messy middle” version of myself. 
Vulnerability so raw it cuts some people in the process! 
Laser-focused on the path instead of keeping my focus on you. 
My apologies Lord! 
Where I am weak... You are STRONG! 
The strength, skills, gifts, and beauty others see is not me at all, but only a glimpse of who you truly are! 
Please continue to help me heal; and fight the lies of others who claim that I am anything less than who you say I am! 
Fearfully & Wonderfully-Made! 
A Royal Priesthood! 
Anointed, Loved, Redeemed, & Chosen... & so much more! 
Please help me operate as such in this new season that I have entered! 
 
Please continue to give me eyes that see and ears that hear! 
(Less of me & more of you) 
Thank you for loving, guiding, and using me as a vessel! 
Using my trials and storms as a blueprint for others. Using my overall pain for good and purpose! 
Growth and becoming who I was meant to be before this world got the best of me. 
Renewal of the mind, and holding on to your hand, as my family and I have entered a season of Promise & Purpose! 
Thank you for this honor to bring your lost children back to you! 
Thank you for all that you have done; and all that you will do! 
(All Glory to God) 
Thank you for being the Great “I AM,” Jehovah & Jireh! 
 
In Jesus name I pray Amen! 
]]>Sat, 19 Jul 2025 21:57:36 GMThttps://www.sqscommunity.com/obstacle_warriors_blog/educate-equip-operateMany of us walk around consumed by this broken world… 
 
We tend to hold on to the familiar; instead of igniting enough courage to explore life outside of our comfort zones. 
 
Some of us attach education as an optional path; but the times we are in, it is required to be woke to what is in front of our very own eyes! 
 
Obtaining the required information and being equipped for what is ahead! 
 
Applying and identifying who we are outside of the lies we have held on to… 
 
We must Educate, Equip, and Operate in our true Identities! 
 
Being active and a blessing to one another; even in the midst of our own storms! 
 
It truly is not just about us; a lie society has driven into our souls! 
 
We are the church; and renewal of the mind & heart is where one would start first. 
 
 
Educate… Equip… Operate… ​
]]>Sat, 28 Jun 2025 19:54:38 GMThttps://www.sqscommunity.com/obstacle_warriors_blog/dear-isolated-oneDear Isolated One,

This season seems to be more heavy than anticipated... You went from having many friends & family, to barely a handful of either!

Jobs, opportunities, and relationships used to be something that came natural, but lately have become scarce.

Isolation at its finest!

Needing(not wanting) a soul to relate or rely on, trying to cope or ground in something to keep your sanity!

Everyone caught up in their own storms & trials...

In your own space; feeling as if no one cares, or has the time to spare!

Some of your loved ones are too consumed by the titles, status, and money they are chasing.

Now more than ever you need someone to hear and validate your current emotions, but no one seems to have the capacity to be there!

All hope is not lost! You are not alone!

The Lord hears & sees all; and has to allow the unimaginable things to transpire, to ignite the growth that otherwise would have lay dormant within you.

Christ is near and never left your side, he's waiting patiently for you to bring your burdens to him!

He loves you so much that he gave up his own life so you can have yours! Not just in this broken world, but in the paradise that awaits us after we take our last breath.

We must be more aware of his presence now more than ever!

The Lord advocates, fights, loves, and protects us on all levels!

If you are currently isolated my child, the Lord wants your attention....

He has plans for you; and your next season of victory cannot be accomplished with the people, places, & things that you continue to hold on to! 

Let go my child; and hold on to the Lord now more than ever!

For he's working behind the scenes; so activate your faith for what's ahead!

You are being pruned & equipped to handle what is attached to the prayers that you have prayed every night!

Remain steadfast and pray for spiritual endurance in this season; because his timing is not ours, and his plans, ways, & victories are much bigger than what we plan or accomplish on our own!

"Go back to what makes you feel good!" the devil whispers.

The Lord reminds you that we must break out of our comfort zones; in order to become who we were truly meant to be before the damage was done.

"You are a Child of God!
Fearfully & Wonderfully Made!
You are MORE than a Conqueror!
A ROYAL Priesthood!
A CITIZEN of Heaven!"

Claim these words instead; and let the love of the Father renew & heal what has been tainted!

My child! Just remember this one last thing... Isolation comes before elevation!


With Christ's Love,

Your Sister in Christ:)]]>Sat, 31 May 2025 03:05:03 GMThttps://www.sqscommunity.com/obstacle_warriors_blog/may-30th-2025Memories of the good and bad floods my mind consistently!

Even though the bad outweighed the good times; I still tend to grasp on to what is now considered the “good old days!”

Mind blown at the concept of using this phrase; bones cracking from time to time, so this is not a dream indeed!

Reality! Splashing and revealing itself each day. Spent most of my years disassociated from the pain that was afflicted upon me.

Awaken from the coma I have been in; and realizing that 40 is just around the corner, and 50  isn’t that far behind!

40! 50! Vanity knocking at my soul; trying to put its claws within me to paralyze & destroy the progress made!

A Testimony! That is what our scars and wounds consist of!

A Gift! That is what today brings all of us who still have air in our lungs and a heart that still beats!

A Purpose! That is why we are still here!
​
Identity! Only found in the Lord & the GREAT I AM!]]>Wed, 09 Apr 2025 22:22:18 GMThttps://www.sqscommunity.com/obstacle_warriors_blog/resilienceEveryone wants to wear the “Resilience Badge,” but no one wants to go through the hell that it takes to obtain resilience. 

Mental health stigma; judgment at its finest! 

Not knowing that a lot of us with some type of mental health disorder, also struggle with childhood trauma connected to one's story.

Resilience! We are the ones who struggle daily with our Mental Health; we are the true definition of resilience!

Recovery! It is all good and well for those who have struggled with alcohol and drugs; but when it comes to Mental Health it's like a plague that just can't be touched!

Ability! We, who struggle on a regular basis with what comes naturally for others; continue the journey that is paved ahead of us, and have a strength that no one will ever truly understand.

Fight! One can try their hardest to cut back on what is needed, support and resources are in the balance, we are just like anyone else who is struggling in this broken world. We have a big God; he's bigger than anyone who has hatred or greed in their heart. An ultimate war that has already been won!

Resilience at its finest! So, think twice the next time you treat one of my kind as if you're better and bigger, because we are in an army with the Lord on our side! 

​]]>Wed, 19 Mar 2025 23:54:59 GMThttps://www.sqscommunity.com/obstacle_warriors_blog/march-19th-2025Be Still…

Things are getting real; and some of us are past discomfort.

Some of us have completely waived our white flags and are just caught up in our own worlds for the time being.

​Some of us operate out of fear and anxiety of what is around us and what's to come…

Get angry!
Let your voice be heard!

But let's stop letting our emotions dictate our next moves.

We have every right to feel what we feel!
We have every right to demand justice!

Our actions become destructive instead of productive when we don't take the time to be still.

Sit still in our Father's presence; he knows us better than we do. He knows our strengths and weaknesses, as well as how we can contribute to what has unfolded in front of our very eyes.

We were all created for this moment in time; and have the weapons that will speak louder than any protest known to mankind.

Let's be still in the Lord's presence…
Let's be guided by our Father instead of our flesh & circumstances.

Let us grow closer to the one who has the wisdom and power; to completely shut down the ones who are trying to oppress others!

Let's be educated, equipped, & operate through the one who stands next to us, as well as ahead of us.

Let us be the true WARRIORS we were meant to be all along!

Let's be still.

Many people in power are basing things out of emotions and their perspective instead of logic. 

They think they are in control and victory has been obtained, but little do they know that it is clearly a mirage!

Power was given to give Justice to the unjust and oppressed. 
Instead…creating a way to make things more complex! 

How we quickly forget that we are not invincible; and everything one does will return back ten times fold!

Ever heard of the saying you reap what you sow?

Judgment and punishment on others; then use God's name to justify actions of vengeance and power…

Is it still about others? Or is it about one's pride and ego, and taking out whatever offense or intimidates the ones who hold the power.

The rich get richer and the poor get beyond poverty; as everyone's focus is on their stake and  overall agenda. 

It's no longer about helping the poor, outcasts, and elderly.. but about popularity, status, and wealth; running over whomever to maintain what has been obtained! 

It's all a mirage…

Enjoy what is for the time being; because the real one in control is G - O - D!
​
Hold on to your faith my brothers and sisters in Christ; here comes our test and trials, put on your daily armor, and put your trust in the one who will never harm, betray, or forsake us!

Everything that is seen is a mirage…

​Victory has already been obtained, so keep it moving and have eyes that see and ears that hear!]]>Fri, 25 Oct 2024 18:03:55 GMThttps://www.sqscommunity.com/obstacle_warriors_blog/dear-frenemyDear Frenemy,
Here we go again! The tug of war that has been the dynamic of our relationship. One minute I'm consumed by the past, and put into a box that you and society have created… The next moment; I am reminded who I truly am in Christ, and the box has been demolished into pieces, and becomes nothing but a faint memory.

Placing people into my life to distract me on the path that lies ahead! Old wounds resurface; and those who don't wish me well, come in and out of my life, but only to monitor and drain what little energy that is within me. 

At times; I feel empowered by the Love, Mercy, and Power of my Lord and Savior! For choosing an underdog like myself, who has been consistently rejected by loved ones, and embraced by enemies! 

I see your slick moves and head games that you play, frenemy of mine! However, I tend to keep falling into your traps, but learning to not dwell as long, remembering who's by my side through it all! 

Little to no support in the flesh; good move there! But I am beyond grateful for the support and love that I do have, and an Almighty Father who always provides higher and bigger than we could ever imagine!

We do this dance on a regular basis; which I thank you for, because it is a platform for Endurance and Strength. As the attacks keep coming, I will eventually no longer be phased by you! 

So I guess I would like to say thank you frenemy of mine! For all the lies, betrayal, deceit, pain, and loss… Because at the end of the tug-of-war we do oh-so-well; there will be a Stronger, Disciplined, and Wiser Warrior. Who has the One (destroyer of souls and flesh) right beside me, smiling as your days are literally numbered! 





Not yours for long, 
Warrior-In-The-Making
AKA
​Anointed Prodigal :)


]]>Fri, 13 Sep 2024 16:10:41 GMThttps://www.sqscommunity.com/obstacle_warriors_blog/gratitudeHere I sit in the beauty of your presence! 

Unconditional love; not even close to what others are capable of!

Meeting your children right where we are; no prerequisites needed, loving on all of us in the midst of us feeling defeated! 

What we see is nothing compared to what is unseen by our natural eyes. Others hold on to temporal things, and your children are holding on to you, our Eternity!

Equipping us with the Armor of God; identity in you, and special gifts that are meant to bless others, as well as part of the weapons to defeat what is not of you!

True identity, purpose, and worth can only be found in you! 

Peace, Justice, Love, Mercy, and Kindness…

A quarter of who you truly are! 

​Out here using others to heal and bind the wounded; while your rebellious children out here using others for their own agendas.

Acting out from childhood trauma’s…

Then it's you that gets blamed; but it's really Free Will that is at the reins!

Thank you for all that you are; and what you continue to do through your children. 

Naysayers are going to keep running their mouths, but the day you return all knees will bow down!
